So yesterday was a carb day...which got a little out of control..boss brought in bagels...bastard! After I trained i "cheated" all healthy foods, but still should not have eaten as much as I did. Anyways

Rear Delt Machine
80 x 10
80 x 10
80 x 12 DROP 50 x 15

DB Upright Rows
I though I wrote down what I did, but I did not. Was supposed to do wide grip upright barbell rows. Usually they do not bother my shoulder, but they were yesterday.

Went to that new gym today. This is my kind of gym. 4 Squat racks, DBs up to 175, 100lb plates, all kinds of stuff! So I will probably sign up tomorrow. Also have a Hack Squat machine! Never used one before! So I shall add these into my routine I guess.

Had no spot like I did last time. The first rep is always really hard for me, so I feel like that had an effect, plus the bench and angle was a bit different than the one I am used to, did not beat the first set from last time, but did on the others.

Hammer Pulldowns (Shoulder Width Grip)I could not do hammer pullups here, tons of places for pullups, but no hammer grips, so I substituted with these
175 x 6
160 x 7
145 x 10

I still have not found the perfect insulin to carb ratio. Yesterday and today I have had to have close to 100 extra carbs to keep my sugars up after training. So unless I remove some fats from my diet, trying to replace the calories with carbs, it pretty much sets me at maintenance. I will get it figured out...hopefully soon, but getting leaner, the more sensitive to carbs I become, so it is like chasing my tail.

So, I joined the new gym today! Went to the old gym, and cancelled my membership.

Man cancelling a gym membership is like breaking up with a girlfriend LOL

Some motivation for today:

So, was supposed to squat today, but I really wanted to try the hack squat, so I did!

Hack Squat
180 x 11
180 x 12
200 x 9

Wow, a lot harder than I though. I have strong legs, and you see pro's just loading the thing up with ever 45 they can. At least I have something that I can really progress on.

DB SLDL
105 x 12 +5lb and 2 Reps

One thing I do not like about this gym, the heavier DB's (100's to 175's) have like no grip, it is like holding a bare bar. I never use straps but I may have to, I will play around with some chalk next time.

Lying Leg CurlThis is a new machine, so this will be my starting point for weights used
110 x 8
100 x 12

Then super-setted bench crunches and roman chairs for 3 sets of 20

I am going to go much heavier on the DB SLDL's next time, my first set is supposed to fail in the 5 to 9 rep range.

Going back 4 days ago for my chest and back workout. Had a terrible workout. My blood sugars were really high all day so I felt like crap.

I got to doing deadlifts. I can hold 500 with just chalk. But these barbells have like NO gripping on them, I lost my grip with 375. I do not want to have to use straps. I will see how it goes this week, maybe grip strength needs to increase for these bars.

The next day, was supposed to be legs. I was out of town for work and no gyms around so I just rested up.

I have been taking the new MusclePrime before training after a 6 week stim break. 160mg of caffeine...still cant say I feel a energy buzz from caffeine, but I get so focused and intense. Killed it today!

Flat Hammer Strength Press
200 x 9
180 x 10

Incline Hammer Strength
180 x 6

Deadlift

I strapped up for this, I forgot my chalk, and these bars are hard to hold on to
I feel like I may have been able to pull 8 but I felt the form getting loose

Two Arm DB Row
70 x 9 +5lbs
65 x 10 +5lbs - 1 Rep

1 Arm DB Row -I do not do these supported on a bench, I support my self on my knee. I like it much better this way
R - 120 x 10
L -120 x 10

Anyone have any recommendations for a prep coach? I want to find someone who has experience with diabetes, because face it. Contest prep for a normal person and a diabetic is vastly different

Hit up Jason Theobald (ScoobyPrep.Com) guy has been my go to for almost 3 years now. Very experienced with individuals on all levels (Regarding prep) and does have a few individual with certain medical conditions. I would give him a shot and see what he has to say.
